    Another hit piece on the only affordable cars just because it’s from sCaRy cHiNa.

    Meanwhile North American cars already track everything you do and sell it to your insurance company and anyone else willing to buy that data. No bad mouthing of the expensive domestic spy machines though.

        You need to learn Xi Jinping Thought. Luckily your car will educate you about how Tibetans and Uighurs are all just Han after all. Celebrate unity with us. You will become one with us.

          Ha thank you comrade for that kind clarification. On reflection, I may have mis-spoke. After all, we are all Han in a sense. Even the sparrow should assimilate to the new normal.

      The cheapest cars ‘Made in China’ following Carney’s deal is Tesla. It comes at around 41k. The cheapest Chinese brands in Canada have a price tag of 120k. It’s a high price for Canadians, but the Chinese workers who work in a 996 working culture and the victims of forced labour are paying a much higher price.
